Workman of Cody, Wyo., rlillng together, finished the endurance race from Evauston, Wyo., to Denver, at 2:35 Friday afternoon, says a Denver letter. Both rode bronchos. Wykert, who. weighs 183 pounds, was on Sam, weight, 911 pounds, and Workman, weighing 160 pounds, rodo Teddy, 1025 pounds. Tho racers were accompanied from tho city limits by an escort of horse men and a detail of mounted police. The streets through which they rodo were so densely lined with spectators that It was Impossible to rldo at great speed. Sam appeared to be In better con dition than Teddy at the finish, but neither horse was exhausted. They had come from Cheyenne, Wyo., a distance of 104 miles, since 6 o'clock yesterday evening, and from Oreeley, Col., 62 miles, since 7 o'clock yesterday morning. The race began Saturday morning, may 30, at 6 o'clock, and the distance ridden was 607 miles. Twenty-five horses started and all had dropped 'out up to last night. Five left Chey enne last evening, but three of these were unable to keep up the fast pace set by Sam and Toddy, At Henderson, 14 miles out of Den ver, Wykert and Workman agreed on the advice of the officers of the Col aroda Humane society,' who were watching the race, and of all concern ed, to call the result a tie and djvide first honors and money prise. Com ing Into Henderson both horses were going at a terrific pace, Workman leading by a few yards. Jamos Edwards, of Dlamondvillo, Wyo., riding Sorrel Clipper, passed un der the wire hero at 8:40 p. m., cap turing third. Kern, of Colorado City, the oldest rider In the race, reached the finishing point oh Dex a t 9:15 p. m., taking fourth. Tho mounts were In good condition, A great crowd greeted them, and Kern was carried from his horse on FOUND ITS SOUL The Story of a Violin That Wat Wrsoksd In a Firs. After the Lucky Baldwin theater and hotel fire In San Francisco years ago there were nine feet of water In the basement, where the Instruments of the orchestra were stored. When a lit tle of It bad been pumped out, August Hlnrlchs, leader of the orchestra, hired a man to swim In and get out his fa mous Amatl violin. It was wrecked water soaked, warp ed, twisted and broken up Into sixty eight pieces. The hot water had soak ed out all the old glue, and every piece had fallen away from Its neighbor, be sides a good many patches of wood put In when repairs bad been done. To all appearance the thing was smashed be yond recall. Nevertheless Herman Muller, a local violin repairer, who knew and loved the old fiddle, took It In hand. Twice he carefully Joined the time darkened pieces of wood. Twice he decided that the Amatl would not do. So once more' be soaked the sixty eight bits of wood apart Then be carefully modeled out of clay an arch such as be remembered that of the old Amatl to have had and for nine weeks kept the bits of wood bound to it until they hod gained the proper shape. Once more he put the bits of wood together. Then for five weeks more be patiently varnished and polished the more than 200 year old fiddle until it shone. Then Hlnrlchs once more drew his bow across the vibrating strings, and the violin spoke. It sank, wept bubbled with life and Joy. The Amatl had found its soul.-San Francisco Examiner, JOHN AND HIS IDOLS. The Chinaman Is Utterly Devoid of Reverence In His Religion. How the Chinaman regards bis idol is told by the Rev. John MacGowan: "The Chinese Is a person utterly de void of reverence, sentiment or devo tion In his religion. With him it Is a matter either of fear or of business, but nialuly the latter. A bouse Is plagued with sickness, which is put down not to bad sanitation or other natural causes, but to the presence of evil (spirits. This leads to a visit to the nearest temple to get the idol to drive them away. A new business is going to be commenced, but before doing so It Is deemed essential to get the sup port of the idols. If one idol says it will not succeed another Is appealed to for Its opinion, and If it Is favorable it is at once accepted as the correct one. "Should the venture turn out a fall ure no reproach of any kind Is uttered against the god whose prediction has been falsified. The man takes the blame upon himself. Ills character has not been pure, he says, or he w as born under an evil star, or he was naturally unlucky and so was bound to fall In anything that be undertook. "Men never dream of thinking about their idols as we: do about God. No affection is shown for tbem. It is most amusing to watch the faces of the Chi nese when you ask them If the Idols love them. The eyes gleam, the face broadens Into, u wide grin, and soon hearty laughter Is heard at this most facetious and side splitting Joke." Chicago News. A Remarkable Church. At Rtlvlchnll, near Coventry, Eng land, there U a unique place of wor ship. Iu 1810 John tireen, a stonema son of a strongly religious turn of mind, laid the first stone of the edifice, and seven years later he completed the building. In all that time lie had as sistance from no one, doing all the work with his owu bunds until the church wns ready for Its interior fit tings. Wooden and even brick build ings erected by one or two men are not uncommon, but this Is the only structure in England aud probably iu the world of which every stone was laid by one man. The building accom modates quite a large congregation, and the church derives a considerable revenue from the contributions of sightseers who are drawn to the place through curiosity. The Equinox Storm Fable. The United States weather bureau has denied that the comlag of the equi nox brings with It a storm. The be lief, it says, that the old fashioned peo ple put In this theory is all misplaced. Any big storm that happens to occur within a week or two of the time that the sun is crossing the line, say the weather men, is dignified by the name of "equinoctial storm," when, as a matter of fact, there Is generally some atmospheric disturbance every week or two, and those that occur about the time of the equinox are Just taking their turn and are not the result of the crossing of the sun. A Fin Pair. "What do you think of the two can didates?" asked one elector of another during a recent contest "What do I think of them? was the reply.
